Julius River Forest camping area
Campsite
On the northern edge of the huge Tarkine rainforest wilderness, the unsealed South Arthur Forest Dr C218 through Julius River, 50 km south of Smithton, is one of the few access points to this magnificent wild country. At Julius River Reserve, 10 km east of the Kanunnah Bridge and Sumac Lookout, there are 6 sites for vans, not tents, 600 m past the picnic area. Take a rainforest walk among ferns, bush orchids, mosses and fungi to a limestone sinkhole or head to nearby Lake Chisholm for a walk through old-growth myrtle forest to an even more spectacular flooded sinkhole.
